The parties who printed and put in circu-
lar about General Gibson. on the day lie
was in Springfield. are very much ashamed
of the dirty enterprise. What General
Gibson really did in the matter alluded to is
lowing paragraph from the Bellefontaine
Republican
General Bill Gibson never stole a dollar
from the state treasury. nor from any other
treasury. Anyone who says SO. utters a
willfnl slander. And there is not one of
his false accusers who. in honor, honesty
and patriotism. ranks high enough 10 be
worthy 10 sit down at the same table with
the, old soldier. Gibson's brOther-in-law.
BreSlin. democrat, stole the money. and
when Gibssu succeeded him, Breslin prom
ised to pay it all back. and said if Gibson
would not expose him. he would do so and
save the money to the state: that it was
only loaned 10 other democrats. and that
they Were going to pay II back: but that II
an exposure were made. they would be
scared off. and the state would lose the
money. Gibson believed him: and to shield
q near relative and save the state, he did
not at once reveal the theft. He was wrong
in this. and it cost him his office, and life
time of sorrow B ut he did not steal dol
lar; every man of any honor. in view of the
motives from which Gibson acted. and in
view of the gallant service he rendered his
country in the army. overlOOks his mistake,
and regrets only that so good a man should
have made such an error. 1t is only those
who do worse than steal-whO would rob
man of his character by base slandcr-
that accuse him of stealing.
